Mouse, joystick and game controller exploits

I didn't miss that distinction at all, Edward. You said "Cheaters using right-mouse to turn", "cheating by using mouse" when stun/grave shackles occurs. So using the mouse look feature is fine and dandy until I get stunned? I better let not touch my right mouse button, I'll be cheating then.

The stun description above your health bar confirms it; you are not supposed to be able to move/turn that way, with the mouse.

Slow's description says "Slowed movement", yes, I know. I'm betting Disney defines "movement" as forward, backward, or sideways movement. The same thing is possibly applied to Grave Shackles (which is "unable to move") If you're going to include pivoting then we better take all actions out such as attacking because my arm moves too.

I mostly don't see how you can assume what Disney's intentions are for the game's design. I'm not saying we should all just accept odd things that happen in the game because we don't know exactly what D wants it to do. However, your view of a pivoting exploit, to me, is ridiculous as you'll see the same sort of behavior in any other game - MMO, FPS, or otherwise.

I'll turn this to another direction because I don't want to turn your thread into a battle over what Disney's master plan may be.

How about I suggest that there's a bug with the keyboard keys and pivoting when stunned or shackled? It seems to me that D just hindered/disabled the keyboard keys (up/down/left/right/WASDQE) for the duration of a stun or shackle because it was easier that way. I suggest that they fix that by allow the pivoting keys (A/D/left/right) to function normally.

For 5, 6 & 7, you are talking about something else, not the exploits I described. Try doing it much, much, much faster and you'll see that you can fire them simultaneously.

Really? I was mousing around as fast as I can. Is your computer skipping a beat allowing for these extra clicks and presses to be caught? For me the game runs smooth as silk and there's absolutely no way for me to change my cannon ammo type in mid-fire without it going through the reload process.

As for the grenades, I said I was able to duplicate what you are talking about (quickly throwing multiple grenade types without waiting for a reload). The pistol, on the other hand, I can except that it made me reload after 3 shots no matter how fast I did it.
